Representative Poorman, of the
Ohio Legislature, is after the tax
dodgers. He has introduced a bill
empowering county commission
ers, with the assistance of the Au-
ditor and Treasurer, to employ an
officer to go in search of such per-
sons. The tax-dodging business
is a grievance that oughtto be cor
+rected in this State. Thousands
of dollars worth of property annu-
ally escape taxation, either by care
lessness or. willful omissions on
the part of the assessors.

A Manly Speech

Mr.. Meagher, the honest labor
ing man whom the Republican rev
olutionists of the Indiana House
of Representatives. expelled from
that body because he was in the
way of the election of Harrison,
the aristocrat, to the United States
Senate, protested against the out
rage of his expulsion insthe fol-
lowing manly language ~,
"Mr. Speaker: Il only wantto say
a word before the vote is taken. I
am no speech-maker, but as I was
sent to represent the men who
earn their living by their daily la
Dor, I think I owe it to them to
protest against this proposed out
rage on one of their representa-
tives. AS I. am not a lawyer 1
can't be expected to split hairs in
discussing my right to a seat on
this floor. While it is trueIthat I
am but a poor laboring man, with
a wife and children to take care of
with the money earned at q pud-
ding furnace, there are a. few
things that I know as well, maybe,
as the lawyers do. Z know that /
never held an office IN maY.1ife un2
til took my seat on thissshpor.-
I know that [ never gotta dollar
from the public treasury and new
er performed an official duty until
1 was elected to represent the la
boring people of Vigo county and
the State Of Indiana.
II know that my constituents
elected me by a fair and honest
majority" and here he turned
about and slowly repeated, "and
no man has ever dared to deny it ;"
and l know that I would rather be
expelled from this House a hun
dred times than to take an office
once when the people didn't; want
me to have it. If I am to be turn
ed out for the purpose of electing
a man to the United States Senate
who doesn't know a laboring man
when he meets him, I will be very
much surprised. When every man
is compelled to admit that I-got
an honest majority Of the votes
cast in my county for Representa-
tive, [ have a right to appeal to
every honest man on this floor to
see hat the rights of 'that majority
are respected. ESPECIALLY dol APP
peal to the men who are here as
the representatives of labor to
stand by me in this fight, because
this attempt to steal a seat from
me is but one of the many outrag-
es perpetrated by our enemies to
defraud the laboring people Of their
just dues.
eff you can afford to turn me
out of this House upon what
scheming politicians call a tech
nicality of the law, I can go back
to the furnace to II my daily
bread, knowing that I am but an
other of the many victims of mo-
nopoly and. of the almighty dol
lar. I thank you all for the at
tention you have given me-"

In speaking of the authorizations
of food, the Cleveland Plain Dealer
very truthfully remarks, that vine
gar comes into almost as large con-
sumption as does sugar, and when
sold and bought tits almost invar-
iably as pure cider vinegar, yet it
is doubtful if one-tenth part of
this article that is sold contains
more than a small portion Of APP
pie juice. In fact, it is next to i'm
possible to procure an absolutely
pure article of cider vinegat,-unless
it be made at home. The market
is filled with authorizations and inn
itations, none of whichaar4e equal
in healthfulness to that made from
the juice of apples, while many
are absolutely injurious when tax
en- into the human system. In
many cases deleterious acids are
employed in making vinegar, one
of the worst and most frequently
employed being sulphurie acid. !,

nopolistic party of political schem-
ers and liberty wreckers may for a
time turn the heads of the people,
and Capitalization may temporari-
ly flourish, but a true republic will
come to its senses after awhile and
hurl from power men and parties
incompetent to administer the peo-
Piles government. The Democratic
party have lived sand fonrished.--
The opposition has. shiftedswith
every political wind and appaared
under every flag to catchra popular
breeze. It has sailed under false
colors to push its 'piratidaI craft
closer to the prize of liberty which
it has attempted to destroy. Under
whatever name 1t has been known
the opposition has not been a peo-
pies party has not been for the
people, and has opposed a peoples
government. The mutations of
time have marked many changes
of its name, and will record others
in the future. 1t survives awhile
and apparently fourishes, but, like
an annual plant it's growth is alb
normal, rank and weak. There is
nothing perennial in its nature,
nothing hardy, rugged or substan-
|tial. By whatever name or under
whatever circumstances tits known
or springs up, it is only opposition
opposition to liberty, opposition
to all that is good in a Democratic
form of government. The time for
the present opposition party to be-
come disrupted fast. approaches
Decay has already set in. The
spoils are being withdrawn from
the grasp, the glory of ofice;hold-
ing is departing from its gaze and
its habitation is becoming desolate.
The name which now nominally
designates it will soon disappear
forever, but ON the surface of poll
tics the same old wreck viii float
and its same old cry for help viii
be marked Opposition"

The Plain Truth.
Chicago Herald.

The precedent of 1867 is still
strong with many reckless politi.
clans. At that time the country
saw a party which had been beat
en- at the polls seat it's defeated
candidate in the Presidential chair
simply by the exhibition of what
is called ~"nerve." By claiming eve
rything and threatening to in
volve the country in war if it's as
sumptions were not concurred in
it succeeded in overcoming a sharp
defeat by sharp practice.
Since that time, on occasions
when political contests have been
close, men have not been wanting
to set about the accomplishment
of the same work in the same way.
The fact that they have not sue
ceeded is due in great part to the
public loathing in which the first
great fraud is still held. Daring
leaders there are who would try
the experiment over again on the
slightest provocation, but the mass
of the people will have none of it.
In Indiana at this time there are a
few men who have gone mad be-
cause the Republicans of the Leg
islature have permitted the Demo
Gratis of that body to elect a Sena-
tor when they could have been pre-
vented as easily as the electoral
vote of Louisiana was stolen
These contemplate shriekers are
now villifying men of their own
party who refused to have a hand
in any such proceedings.

Here are some reflections that

Here are some reflections that
will strike the older portion of our
readers as about as near gospel
facts as anything secular could
very well be:
"The Democratic party was not
born to die. That political organ
ization has withstood all storm for
nearly a century. 1t has thrived
when in power and has kept the
germ of liberty alive when labor
ing under temporary ~adversity.-

The Next Senate.
New York World,

The Senatorial elections are now
all settled, except New Jersey and
West Virginia, both of which will
beyond doubt, elect Democrats
The outcome is that the Democrats
gain foue seats in the next Senate
one in California, one in New
Jersey and one in Virginia-and
the Republicans gain one in Neva-
da.
There are AZ Republicans and
"a Democrats in the present Sen
ate. The changes, transferring
three seats to the Democratic side
from the Republican, will make
the figures stand 80 Republicans
and 81 Democrats. But it is be-
lieved that Senator Riddleberger,
of Virginia, will act with the Dem
ocrats as soon as Governor Daniel
becomes his associate, and this
will even up the numbers to 3S
Republicans and 38 Democrats.
The Republicans will probably
most regret the loss of Benjamin
Harrison, of Indiana, who has
been a favorite candidate for the
Presidential nomination, and OF
William J. Sewell, Of New Jersey,
who has been an able and faithful
representative of the railroad cor
porations.
The prospect of a tie in the Sen
ate makes more apparent the un-
wise action of the Democrats of
the Nebraska Legislature in neg
Letting to use their otherwise prof
itless votes in rejecting Senator
Van Wyck over the opposition
and the money of the corpora
tons. On all questions involving
the proper restriction of the power
of corporations MI. Van Wyck
would have been in accord with
the Democratic Senators.
1t is fortunate that all the cleo
tons will be found regular and
that there will be no pretense for
any contests.

New York World: The attempt
of Republican Senators to juggle
away the fact of an enormous
Treasury surplus will deceive no
body, not even themselves. Sec
rotary Manning stated the incon-
testable fact in his recent letter,
saying: For the last seven years,
besides expanding $24,000,OO0 pei
annum in the purchase of a metal
at present lacking international
currency and superauous for local
currency, the annual excess of or.
binary revenue ove ordinary ex.
penditure has been about $780,.
100000, which excess is gradually
charging SO that the measure Of
our present annual taxation is
nigh to $129,OOO,0O0. The actual
cash in the Treasury, the forced
payments upon the public debt
the reckless appropriations voted
by Congress, all attest the truth O.
the Secretary's words, and for Mr.
Allison to attempt to whistle the
surplus down to $15,Oo0,000 OIL
$20,000,000 is the desperate device
of a defender of protected monopo-
lies, bent upon preventing a re.
duction of the taxes, under which
they are growing richer from the
license afforded them to exact
bounties from the people. The,ex-
act surplus cannot be juggled out
of sight, cannot be judiciously ex.
pended, nor one-fifth of it, upon a
navy and coast defenses. In JUS
tice to the people it should be pre-
vented by a reduction of the war
taxes.

how to meet claims to the amount
